KITCHENS!!!

Here are a few kitchens that I love for different reasons...(this is just a sampling of the hundreds of kitchen photos I have accumulated)

SOUTHERN LIVING
love the symmetry, the wood floors, the white cabinets and the set up.

COASTAL LIVING?
love the yellow and white combo. also like the range and hood

ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST?
love the set up of the dining table right next to the island

COASTAL LIVING
love the wood top on the island and the white cabinets

?
love the cafe style hood and the yellow and blue tones

WOLF RANGE

WOLF 36" GAS RANGE

I have done a bit of research on the best gas cooktops and electric ovens and it seems like the WOLF gets the best overall ratings. Any opinions out there on the WOLF or other gas ranges? How important do you think a double oven is? I don't cook much as of right now, so I'm not sure. I think the 36" is the best option for our kitchen since space is somewhat limited. What do you think?
Please comment! Thanks.

CURB APPEAL

Today was our last day to back out of this house due to inspection, and since the inspection went well, we are on our way to closing on this house. As we have thought more about the house we decided we really want to spend some of our $ on the curb appeal. We will have to get bids to see how much it will cost to change the outside, but hopefully we can do some things to make it more of a New England style.

Here are a couple of pictures that inspire us...




Do you think it's possible? I sure hope so (I'm crossing my fingers)
